N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)glycine

Description:

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)glycine, also known as HEG, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a hydroxyethyl group attached to the nitrogen of glycine. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups. It exhibits both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a buffering agent in biochemical and pharmaceutical formulations. The presence of the hydroxyethyl group enhances its stability and solubility compared to glycine alone. N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)glycine is often utilized in the synthesis of surfactants, chelating agents, and as a stabilizer in protein formulations. Additionally, it may play a role in biological systems, potentially influencing metabolic pathways. Its safety profile indicates low toxicity, but standard laboratory precautions should be observed when handling the substance. Overall, N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)glycine is a versatile compound with significant utility in both research and industrial applications.
